LEGEND

THE PATHWAYS THAT LEAD A BRAND TO BECOME A LEGEND

Legend is an exclusive b2b event, held annually, conceived and organized by Promemoria Group to research, study, discuss and celebrate the paths that determine the transformation of a brand into a Legend. A special event, accessible by invitation only.

How do you become a Legend? How can you plan a legendary future?

Legend is dedicated to managers, c-levels, entrepreneurs, experts and visionaries. The goal is to get a fresh perspective on the present, deciphering its signs and trying to hold history and vision together so that we can build the future. Inspiration comes from some of the people we consider the best in their field, from the stories of success of important Made in Italy brands. Legend is a moment of reflection and exchange of ideas that questions the visions, values and challenges of legendary companies. Between past, present and future.

The 2019 and 2021 editions have been realized in collaboration with Lavazza.

LEGEND24

The legacy of success: Shaping the future

29 November 2024 | Gallerie d’Italia - Milano

In this edition of Legend, we focused on one of the most crucial challenges facing businesses today: generational transition. We explored new perspectives, innovative and somewhat visionary, to redefine the ways in which the values of a historic company can be transmitted without losing the spark that made it legendary.

We created spaces for dialogue with leading personalities to understand how to preserve and pass on the family legacy, making it a growth engine for the business and a strategic asset to educate long-term thinking. A reflection that starts from heritage and transforms it into something new: an opportunity where history and innovation can meet to generate value, generation after generation.

The debate session with Marina Nissim, Andrea Chiesi and Gianluca Colonna, moderated by Bernardo Bertoldi, was followed by a deep dive into design, a dialogue between Livia Peraldo and Paolo Brambilla, on generational transitions in the design world.

LEGEND23

Strategies for time travelers

LEGEND23

24 November 2023 | Gallerie d'Italia, Torino

At Legend23 we shared some great ideas that can change the way we do, and think about, business. This year we did not deal with classic discourses on heritage and brands, but touched on new topics, with speakers who brought fresh and innovative stimuli and questions. We opened up paths that gave a new posture to business and heritage, insisting on the value that awareness of one's past has for designing effective and sustainable long-term strategies. The focus was one: the idea that the antithesis of the future is not the past, but the obsession with the present.

The round table discussion with Anna Ferrino and Nicola Maccanico was followed by an inspirational session by Architect Michele De Lucchi: a speech centred on his work that fitted perfectly into the reflection between present and future, exploring the role of the past as a lever to return to a deeper horizon.

LEGEND19

Historical and legendary enterprises between creativity, innovation and commitment

Three days of discussion, meetings, and ideas to study and celebrate the pathways that lead a brand to become a legend, bringing together exceptional business ambassadors, opinion leaders, experts, and visionaries to discuss what makes a brand legendary. Organized around four panels, representing the cardinal points of the event—product, heritage, innovation—Legend19 set the stage for the first-ever manifesto of legendary brands.
